Since the dawn of times (FG commit
1bcaf4bfdd38f18ac7c375dd9319935ff3df56ac, where SGBinding was called
FGBinding), SGBinding's destructor has had a strange behavior:
SGBinding::~SGBinding()
{
if(_arg && _arg->getParent())
_arg->getParent()->removeChild(_arg->getName(), _arg->getIndex());
}
In other words, it used to remove the passed-in <binding> node from its
parent node (if any) once the SGBinding instance got destroyed. This
behavior is very unintuitive to several people and has resulted in a few
workarounds in the FG code base just to cope with this strangeness.
This commit gives SGBinding the implictly-generated destructor,
therefore SGBinding::~SGBinding() does not attempt to remove the
property node anymore.

this is to use some kind of utc time for timestamps in mp protocol,
to improve the lag correction system for mp planes, using a
"real time" mode when possible.
Remove an apparently bogus portability workaround (which was presumably
targetting one of the bugs fixed in the previous commit [1]) and further
simplify the code using std::find().

Explicitly enable the CMP0067 policy to have try_compile use the correct
C/C++ standard flags; otherwise, CMake will default to not honoring those,
causing the C/C++ checks to be compiled with no standard flags and SimGear
to be compiled with them. This causes errors if we try to detect a new
prototype which is only present in C++14 and above).
Indent the test code in a nicer way and shorten it, taking advantage of
this guarantee from the C++ standard:
If control reaches the end of main without encountering a return
statement, the effect is that of executing return 0.
-> no need for "#include <cstdlib>" nor for "return EXIT_SUCCESS".
Define HAVE_WORKING_STD_REGEX if, and only if <regex> is usable.
Normally, <regex> should be available and working in any compliant C++11
implementation, however at least g++ 4.8[1] lies about its C++11
compliance: its <regex> is utterly unusable, see [2] and [3] for
details.

CentOS 7, and used on FlightGear's current Jenkins installation.
